MITRE ATT&CK
2 techniques across 2 tactics: Initial Access, Persistence The technique list with ATT&CK links and the kill-chain view is part of the Basic plan and up. |
| Exploitation Conditions | Authenticated access to Tanium Patch with low-level user credentials (PR:L) is required. No user interaction or special deployment configuration is necessary beyond having a standard Tanium Patch instance accessible over the network. |
| Impact | The CVSS 3.1 base score is 6.3 (Medium), with an attack vector of Network, low attack complexity, and low privileges required. Impact on confidentiality, integrity, and availability is limited (Low each). Exploitation probability (EPSS) is unknown, and the vulnerability is not listed in CISA’s Known Exploited Vulnerabilities (KEV) catalog. These signals indicate a moderate, internally focused risk: an attacker with existing low-level access to the Tanium interface could leverage the flaw to tamper with or exfiltrate patch-related data, but the absence of public exploits and limited impact reduce urgency. |
| Exploit ScenarioDerived | An attacker with valid low-privilege credentials to the Tanium web interface sends a crafted HTTP request to a vulnerable Patch endpoint, injecting a malicious SQL statement. This causes the backend database to execute unintended queries, allowing unauthorized viewing of patch management data or modification of configuration records. |

Alert meAnalysisAIv1 – Jul 28, 2026
SQL injection in Tanium Patch allows authenticated low-privilege attackers to read, modify, or delete data from the backend database via crafted network requests. The vulnerability affects all versions prior to the vendor-released patch identified in advisory TAN-2026-019. No public exploit code or active exploitation has been reported.
RemediationAI
Apply the vendor-supplied update for Tanium Patch as detailed in advisory TAN-2026-019 (https://security.tanium.com/TAN-2026-019). The advisory should be consulted for the exact patched version. No temporary mitigations are described; as a general precaution, restrict access to the Tanium console to trusted administrators until the patch is deployed.

Technical ContextAI · show details
The vulnerability resides in the Tanium Patch module, a component of the Tanium endpoint management suite responsible for deploying software updates. It stems from improper neutralization of special elements used in SQL commands (CWE-89), likely occurring when user-supplied input is incorporated into a database query without adequate sanitization. The CPE designation cpe:2.3:a:tanium:patch:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:* covers all unpatched versions of the Patch module.
